Motivational Exercise

1. Visualize the result
2. Feel good about the vision of the result
3. Hold the feeling and the vision of the result as you look at the current state
4. Let the feeling build until your ready to do the action you are motivating for


This exercise will be most effective to try on something you can see and imagine. For example cleaning up a mess or organizing a space. You'll want tot have a clear image of what the end result looks like, the more abstract an a goal the harder it is to imagine a physical end result. That is not to say you can't use this exercise to make money or find love, only that at that level it will be harder to prove to yourself it is working.

With practice you can actually make this a default motivational skill, something you just do without thinking. You may find that it takes less energy to do things you wouldn't normally have been motivated to do when you don't have to push yourself.

I have come across this type of exercise many times in my learning, I make no claim that it is mine but I found it works for me.
